The Week that Was

A week filled with highs, lows, emotional drama, shameless book plugging (which has not worked btw), appointments, phone calls and anything else you could think of has probably happened to me!

And yet despite all this HERE I AM!

That’s right I have suffered and survived this week from hell, I am still sitting on the chair at my PC desk and typing away merrily.

Sometimes you have to just accept that life will not make it easy for you, roll with the punches and make sure that when the dust settles you are the one still standing at the end of the contest.

Bruised and battered maybe but surviving nonetheless.

“The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done.”

You know who said that?

Makes some sense though doesn’t it?

I got hit with some low blows and kept getting back up and that is how to deal with depression.

It is fine to be a little scared, that is human nature

“You know, I think you try harder when you’re scared… That’s when it’s worked best for me. “

The important thing is that you keep fighting back, don’t give in to the fear and the darkness

“Going in one more round when you don’t think you can – that’s what makes all the difference in your life. “

Who would have thought that Rocky Balboa could be so inspirational!

And above everything else, be very grateful I have the Rocky DVD box set and not Stop! Or my mom will shoot on DVD!
